The Breeches Guide
Looking for new breeches but not sure where to begin? Read our breeches guide for a breakdown of our favorite brands.
For Horses
For Horses has taken the US market by storm in the last couple of years with their slim fit and super-stretchy fabric. 100% made in Italy, this brand has the iconic Italian flag button sewn onto the right thigh of every pair of breeches. They run shorter than both the Equiline and Tailored Sportsman breeches, making them a great option for average or shorter riders.
Ennie
The most popular style from For Horses, the Ennie breeches are a mid rise fit in their Ultra-Move fabric, which is a highly stretchy, lightweight fabric. This gives the breeches a legging-like feel, with a slim fit through the legs. The back pockets are perfectly placed for a perky back-end. The waistband has the same full stretch. This makes them a "fit-everyone" type of breech--perfect for both slim riders and riders with a larger midsection. They are offered in a wide variety of colors, making them favorites for both showing and schooling. Their tan option is a darker beige than most other brands--it's still perfectly suitable for all disciplines, but something to keep in mind if you prefer a lighter beige.
Rita
The Rita breeches are in the same Ultra-Move fabric as Ennie, but in a true high-rise fit. With no back pockets, they have a streamlined look perfect for the show ring. They are also offered in a wide variety of colors.
Emma
The Emma breeches are a more structured fabric than the Ennie and Rita. This fabric is more structured, with less stretch than the Ultra-Move fabric. While still a mid-rise fit, the Emma breeches fit slightly lower than the Ennie breeches. The beige in this style is a traditional light beige, making it a great option for more traditional riders.
Tailored Sportsman
Tailored Sportsman’s are the quintessential American equestrian breeches--with classic styling suitable for any ring. They come in a variety of styles that fit almost everyone. Their boot sock bottom style is a great update for comfort and fit, while still maintaining their classic look and style. Made of 73% cotton, 20% polyamide, 7% lycra, they have a classic cottony hand feel that’s not slippery in the saddle but still has plenty of stretch. They also have traditional clarino knee patches, offered with tan patches in every color and matching patches in select colors. Offered in a wide variety of colors, these breeches are a great choice for riders who like to step out of the black/navy box when it comes to riding apparel. Between the fit options--long, short, low rise, mid rise, front zip and side zip, Tailored Sportsman truly has something for everyone. A tip for buying girls Tailored Sportsman breeches--the girls breeches run shorter, and slimmer in the legs and hips than ladies’ breeches, but the waist is the same between a girls 14 and ladies 24, a 16 and 26, etc. Can’t find exactly what you’re looking for? Tailored Sportsman breeches are made to order in NYC, and we can special order any current color in any size and style.
Equiline
This Italian brand has become a cult favorite among top hunter/jumper and equitation riders. With their iconic “black triangle” logo on the leg, these breeches can be spotted across the show grounds. These breeches run long, making them a great option for tall riders. They come in a wide variety of styles, with many seasonal options offered for a limited time only. Pro tip: if you love a seasonal style, stock up while you have the chance! They rarely remake their limited edition options. Permanent collection items are listed below in detail, and then we've listed the seasonal breeches by rise.
Ash
The Ash breeches are their iconic original style with zipper back pockets. They are a low to mid rise fit, coming up a bit higher in the back than the front. They are made primarily of cotton, for a breathable, comfortable feel and are offered in tan, white, black, navy, and grey.
Atirk
Made of their B-move fabric, the Atirk breeches are made with stretchy, technical fabric that feels great in and out of the saddle. Equiline's B-Move fabric is thicker than For Horses' Ultra-Move fabric, but offers more compression and a more substantial feel. Atirk is a mid-rise fit, with a larger waistband than most of the other Equiline styles--some people size down in these breeches. The back pockets are well placed to highlight your best asset.
Ernaek
The Ernaek breeches are a perfect mid to high rise fit. They are higher than Ash and Atirk, but do not fit as high as the For Horses Rita breeches or some of the seasonal Equiline high rise styles. Most people love the fit of these breeches. The seaming along the back of the pants gives a great lift, while keeping a clean, classic look suitable for every discipline.
